Abdullah Bay captivates with an illuminating exploration of how racial and color classifications have been used to dehumanize people by stripping away their national characteristics and birthright. Tracing the origins of our modern racial paradigm to François Bernier's 1684 publication "New Division of Earth," Bay meticulously deconstructs how these non-nationality classifications (black, white, red, brown, yellow) were deliberately constructed as a social engineering tool.
Drawing from his 33 years of study in etymology and semantics, Bay demonstrates how language serves as both the mechanism of oppression and the key to liberation. His brilliant analysis of international legal terminology reveals why using words like "subjugation" rather than merely "unlawful" invokes entirely different frameworks of understanding. The term "subjugation" specifically recognizes that an entire nation of people has been placed under the control of another state - acknowledging both nationhood and the international legal protections that should apply.
Perhaps most fascinating is Bay's explanation of operative conditioning - the Pavlovian response where people automatically identify with color classifications without critical thinking. He shares powerful anecdotes from teaching nationality to over 5,000 students, including moments when children would grab his arm and say, "Look at you, you're black," demonstrating how deeply ingrained these paradigms become without proper education in grammar and critical analysis.
The conversation takes a stunning turn when Bay reveals connections between the privatization of prisons in the mid-1980s, states' contractual obligations to keep prisons full, and a 1990 meeting targeting rap music for criminalization - a deliberate cultural engineering strategy that continues to impact communities today.
